Boss Strategy: How to Defeat the Supreme Inspector in Black Myth Wukong
The battle with the Supreme Inspector in Black Myth Wukong is usually more maddening than anticipated due to his prolonged, sporadic combo chains that are notoriously difficult to dodge on a regular basis. We've developed a levelled-up strategy that mitigates your dependency on perfect dodging through the utilization of specific transformations and abilities. Employing this analysis, you can conquer the battle within under two minutes by rendering his most hostile sections trivial.
Stage One: The Opening Stagger and Focus Accumulation
The opening of the battle decides the pace, allowing you to build up the necessary Focus points for your critical metamorphosis.
Opening Encounter and Punish Pattern
The Supreme Inspector always begins the fight with a specific flying attack when he enters the arena.
Dodge Trigger: Watch the bottom right of his model for a flash of red lightning around his right foot.
Dodge and Attack: The moment you see the red lightning, Dodge (don't deflect). Follow up with two Light Attacks immediately.
Invisibility Stagger: Use Cloud Step into hidden, and start charging a Heavy Attack. The two Light Attacks are to refresh Wukong so the charged Heavy Attack connects cleanly for a three-point stagger.
Follow-up: Follow the three-point Heavy Attack with Whirling Attacks to close the distance. Use the Earth Wolf Spirit (passive Focus gain) after a few hits and then the three Light Attacks, and then disengage.
Building Transformation Charges
Transformation is critical, so having sufficient Focus is a priority.
You will need three Focus Points ready for conversion into Transformation Charges the instant you take it.
The Earth Wolf Spirit's passive skill and the mounted Ān Pŭ Prayer Beads are strongly recommended to allow you to acquire these three points in time.
Phase Two: Trivializing Transformation Mid-Fight
Once you have your Focus, the other is to defeat the Supreme Inspector in Black Myth Wukong as quickly as possible using the Ice transformation.
Ice Transformation and Damage Spikes
The transformation window must be opened simultaneously when the Inspector completes his six-attack combo (a rare health-based trigger during testing).
Activation: Immediately activate your transformation (The Husk transformation is utilized here).
Ice Spell: Spam the first spell slot key bind immediately upon transforming to activate the Ice ability. This will freeze the Inspector, boosting your damage and allowing your spirit duplicates to attack freely.
Attack Pattern: Spam Light Attacks throughout the period of Ice effect in order to cause massive, sustained damage.
Transition Management during Mid-Phase
Around mid-point with around 50% health remaining, the Inspector gets red and begins rolling attack. This is the cue to exit the form.
Deactivate: Abort your transformation as soon as possible. Dodge window while in that form is too punishing.
Interrupt: Cast Cloud Step when he starts rolling, and begin charging a three-point Heavy Attack. Releasing this charged attack when he gets into range will interrupt his roll and stagger him.
Whoop: Immediately follow up the release of the Heavy Attack with repeated Whirling Attacks.
Phase Three: The Fire Ring and the Plantain Fan Finish
The final phase is completely trivialized by casting a special Artifact.
Plantain Fan Trivialization
Inspector's final stage is triggered at approximately 30-40% health and begins with an always-cutscene where he surrounds the arena with a harm-filling Ring of Fire.
Counter: Immediately spam your special artifact button and flip on the Plantain Fan.
Effect: The Fan eliminates the Ring of Fire instantly and repetitively interrupts the Supreme Inspector for roughly ten to fifteen seconds.
Finishing Sequence: Close the distance with Cloud Step, then four-hit him and spam Light Attacks till the fight is over. The interrupt effect of Icy Fruit makes this sequence very easy.
Recommended Player Build (Equipment & Skills)
To make this approach to killing the Supreme Inspector in Black Myth Wukong work, your build must be designed to gain Focus and keep dealing damage throughout.
Armor & Weapons
Staff: Base weapon at Beech Way Staff.
Armor: Gale God Armor Set (Great all-rounder to protect).
Spirits: Earth Wolf Spirit (Crisis for the passive Focus gain).
Artifacts: Plantain Fan (Needed for cheesing the final phase).
Prayer Beads: Ān Pŭ Prayer Beads (Recommended for speedy Focus gain, especially needed prior to the first transformation).
Was this specific technique straightforward enough to employ to beat the Supreme Inspector within Black Myth Wukong, or are you succeeding with a completely different strategy?
